No ther wouldn’t, and no we don’t.Hockey Widow wrote: ↑Tue May 14, 2024 12:35 am There may be teams that would pay a premium for Silovs. We have 2 other youngsters up and coming.
I wonder if Carolina would have interest still.....Chef Boi RD wrote: ↑Tue May 14, 2024 9:34 pm For shits n giggles what are realistic trade scenarios involving Pettersson? You obviously have to take a substantial contract back. What’s out there?
Shockeroo, you were trolling when you talked about trading him for Marner in the GDT!
“Not trading” might mean “can’t trade”, maybe? I’ll give you $11.6 reasons why. Would I like to trade him, pastor strangelove? With how he is performing in these playoffs, 100% I would old timer.Strangelove wrote: ↑Wed May 15, 2024 4:03 pmShockeroo, you were trolling when you talked about trading him for Marner in the GDT!
Thoughts JPP?

Right back atcha, Blob. Yes, a top 15 is too much for Silovs, but, from what he has shown the past 12 months, he has every indications of being a top 10 goalie in the league in 3-5 years. Take a look at the league. We have at least 3 teams in the playoffs who could have used Silovs. Toronto, LA and Edmonton. Never mind the teams that missed the playoffs, and who are building towards competing in 2-4 years. Markstrom is the top goalie in the trade market for competing teams, but, the bottom feeders who have already stockpiled picks and prospects also need goaltending. Silovs is in a perfect spot for those teams. And, as we have seen, trading for more wingers doesn't do shit when you need to make a save. So, is a top 15 pick overpayment. Hell Yes. But, to fill a giant need, it is worth it. If you look at what a lot of 1st round picks have been traded for (McCabe/Lafferty, Jeannot, O'Reilly. etc), its not out of line, and he is more useful now that most of those names. Is it a gamble? Yep. But, in my oppinion, anything less than a top 15 pick, and we'd be foolish to trade him away. Seriously, what the hell are we going to do with a late 2nd round pick (many seem to say that is his market value)? Trade it and a 3rd for a backup is the most likely scenario, or grab a D man with a 25% chance of making it in 4-6 years?
It would have to be a “blow your doors off” offer to trade Silovs. The guy looks like he could easily succeed Demko if he puts in work with Clarke.Tciso wrote: ↑Thu May 16, 2024 8:56 amRight back atcha, Blob.

Silovs has to be in the top 3-5 up and coming goalies. So, if somone wants him, make them pay.

Demko will be 31 3 months after the season starts on his next contract, you don’t dare give him more than 4 years, and you definitely cannot afford to compensate for shorter term with increased AAV. It would be foolish to hitch our wagon to a goalie with his lower body injury history…..goaltenders tend to see more of those injuries the older they get, and, as with all of us, they don’t recover as completely from injuries after 30.
If we have a possible top 10 goaltender already in-house, I think we’d be crazy to let him go in this situation. Particularly as we have a hole in the backup position already and especially with him still having just turned 23.
If Silovs can be our next starter, and he gets signed this summer to a 3 year deal, then we get a cheap starter for 1 season of our supposed window, and then lock him up to term at 26 years of age.

Do the Canucks have another goalie prospects with the potential of Silovs? I ask because if someone did offer up a 1st round pick, the Canucks would be foolish to not seriously consider it.
